These will necessarily result in overflows or underflows so I've attempted to weed this behavior out while adding asserts in case there are still usages I haven't found
The macro defined namespaces confused the hell out of lupdate and more or less broke translations permanently. Looks like the only way we can do it is to have a hardcoded namespace, which goes against my instinct, but honestly how likely is it that we'll change the namespace anyway (I guess forks might want to do it, but that's their problem ;) )
When adjusting a slider, keyframe time, or curve value, it is undesirable to
re-cache the entire affected area while the user is still dragging UI objects.
Since the video is unlikely to be playing, the priority must go to the
currently active frame so the user gets visual feedback on the rendered image
as soon as possible. This was implemented in some areas, but this commit should
have that functionality in all areas.
frames
Previously, when the video renderer received a dirty cache signal, it would
proceed to extract all frames from the range and queue them. However, this could
be extremely slow for long ranges since it had to iterate through the entire
range and calculate the individual frames it contained. Now, we use the same
range combining system as audio and automatically calculate the next frame
within the range only when necessary. Essentially the same work, but split up
over time and done only when needed leading to no discernible UI pause when
invalidating cache.
Once again, conceptually this system should work, however it does not seem to
be the most efficient and it wouldn't surprise me if the multithreading was
eventually upgraded to an even more coherent system one day. However for
"core principles" this should be fairly decent.
The new rendering pipeline strives to simplify the nodes themselves as much
as possible and move much of the logic to an external rendering engine. This
change removes all of the responsibilities that no longer belong to the
nodes themselves and will soon be folded into the renderer.
